I'm astonished, they seem to be actually using the prototypical model for these! This just made my day! This will be a definite buy for me now. *!greengrin!*

EDIT: Where did you find this picture if I may ask? Can't seem to find it on their facebook page and I have not recieved a newletter from them. !*don-know!*

You're darn right! It took us a while to get them to fully replicate some little details into this one that we hope everyone will like. *!!wink!!*

Wait a minute. There is still a gap where the low headlights were on the default ES44AC. Will RSC be releasing them with realistic NS GEVO horn sounds?

Awesome! Glad someone with some good knowledge of US railroads are helping out the guys across the pond try to get things a prototypical as possible! !!*ok*!!

I guess no one knows, or will let the cat out of the bag in terms of the wait we are looking at with these guys. Are we talking weeks, months? Just wondering...I am assuming we are talking weeks.

I cannot say when it will come out, but from what I've been testing, it's good to go! :D

Wow! RSC's work lately has really been top notch! Only if we had a NS route from RSC to run these on, I'd buy them for sure if we did.

We do, its the NSAND route which was developed by SMMdigital. He has since the left the community, but has given his assests/route to this community. Buzz and others are getting them ready for release in the near future. Also freight trains can be seen on the NEC, but generally these trains are found at night, or in the early morning, and are run generally by NS. The SOO LINE is also a good canadiate for NS as most Class 1s can be seen in the area from what I am told. Plus don't forget that locomotives from different railroads get shuffled alot; It is not unheard of to see some eastern flags over in the west and vice versa.

Hope they add the step lights and working cab lights. Hopefully on this model they can make the doors and windows open. Also hope they add some new NS rolling stock.

Odd. Are these new models? Is so, maybe we can take them, paint them, and have prototypical NS GEVO's! Oh wait. You can't repaint new DLC anymore, can you?
